DNK2007

Hi all,

Is it possible to write a perl program that do autofilling of the login webform(username, password) of other domain (say hotmail.com). Assume domain name, username, password are passed as arguments to the perl program.

Thanks

I agree with Rajiv. The Mechanize module is exactly what you want to use. In fact, on the Mechanize examples page, there is an example for using login/pwd.

Hi all

I tried with a simple program and I stuck up with some error. The code goes like this

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
    #!/usr/bin/perl
 
    # turn on perl's safety features

    use strict;

    use warnings;
 
    # work out the name of the module we're looking for

    my $module_name = $ARGV[0]

      or die "Must specify module name on command line";
 
    # create a new browser

    use WWW::Mechanize;

    my $browser = WWW::Mechanize->new();
 
    # tell it to get the main page

    $browser->get("http://search.cpan.org/");
 
    # okay, fill in the box with the name of the

    # module we want to look up

    $browser->submit_form(

                           form_number => 1,

                           fields      => { query => $module_name},

                         );

    $browser->click();
 
    # click on the link that matches the module name

    $browser->follow_link( text_regex => qr{$module_name} );
 
    my $url = $browser->uri;
 
    # launch a browser...

    system('Mac Safari', $url);
 
    exit(0);

and the error is (program name is temp.pl)

There is no form numbered 1 at temp.pl line 20
Died at /Library/Perl/5.8.6/WWW/Mechanize.pm line 1724.

what might be the problem?

Thanks
